Athletics Get Road Win, 7-3
Texas got a terrific game from right fielder Bryce Harper. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Oakland, 7-3. Harper was the player of the game despite being on the losing side. He was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The 'W' lifts Oakland's record to 73-77.

Oakland relied on the bat of Eduardo Escobar to get the win. The third baseman ripped a solo home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Athletics ahead, 4-3. For the game, Escobar had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Escobar. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
